Dubai, UAE - The leading Asian dining venue, with restaurants situated in over 10 countries across the world, ‘Mango Tree Thai Bistro’ is set to open in Dubai.  The contemporary space is located at Hilton Dubai The Walk and doors will officially open on 6^th February, 2019. The venue promises to serve up delicious authentic Thai flavours and new creations that are prepared by the talented in-house team and Head Chef – Atip Intarakased from Thailand.

The menu will feature an array of mouthwatering dishes from the 4 regions of Thailand, alongside introducing some items that are familiar to the local palate. Guests can expect dishes such as watermelon salad with hand grinded dry shrimps floss, an ancient Thai recipe from the Royal palaces that has been revived and new trends like som tam corn salad that has become a trend in restaurants everywhere in Thailand. The menu will also feature other unique signature dishes such as spicy beef short ribs soup, jungle curry from the mountainous regions, and massaman leg of lamb inspired from the South of Thailand. Guests can also quench their thirst by sipping on delicious beverages such as the one-of-a-kind mango tree mule and mango basiltini curated in from Bangkok’s mixologist, complimented with a Thai tapas bar menu and Thai flatbread creations.

The lively and family-friendly venue offers a seating capacity of 156 guests and includes a terrace overlooking the vibrant streets of JBR. Guests can expect a relaxed dining atmosphere, with refreshing beverages and upbeat sounds playing throughout the evening.

The interiors boast a vibrant and rustic feel, coupled with bespoke art murals on the walls that resemble the lively and fun-loving lifestyle of Thailand and the bustling streets of Bangkok. The architect behind the venue design is Ryan Phanphensophon, son of the COCA and Mango Tree Restaurants’ CEO Pitaya Phanphensophon, and grandson of the restaurant group’s original founder, Srichai Phanphensophon, who first started the restaurant group back in 1957 from a simple 20 seat shophouse in downtown Bangkok.

“We are excited to have such a well-known restaurant brand open at our hotel. The concept is authentic and the food is full of flavours. We are confident Mango Tree Thai Bistro will see great success. We can’t wait to open the doors to our guests at Hilton Dubai The Walk,” said Andreas Searty, Cluster General Manager, Hilton Dubai Jumeirah, Hilton Dubai The Walk and Hilton Dubai Creek.

“Our new Mango Tree Thai Bistro promises to deliver something never before seen in the region; a vibrant dining destination that is less formal than traditional Thai restaurants. Hilton Dubai The Walk attracts a large number of families and guests on extended stays, so this bold bistro concept with indoor seating and outdoor patio will be perfectly suited to guests who want a casual place to dine, couples and groups of friends seeking a fun and lively evening out,” said Trevor MacKenzie, Mango Tree’s Global Managing Director.

Mango Tree Thai Bistro, known for its bold new menus and trendy and casual attitude, is sure to stand out from the crowd as it opens its doors at Hilton Dubai The Walk in February 2019.
